    Hello from Atlanta

    Hi Everybody! My name is Kurt and I am a total hammock newbie. I just bought an ENO Doublenest mostly just to chill in while tent camping. I came across Shug's video, which led me to Whoopieslings.com, which led me here. OMG, What did I get myself into?

    I saw ENO at a booth at Lanerado back in '06. I wanted one then but couldn't afford it. Flash forward to a couple weeks ago, my new girlfriend says she wants to go camping. I haven't been camping in years but remembered the ENOs and started shopping for one. I ended up on Amazon, where for some reason the blue ENO Doublenest was listed for $46 while all the other colors were $54-$64. I like blue so I jumped on it. Two hours later the price was changed to $64. $18 typo win for me!

    I also bought the Slap Straps Pro because I didn't know any better. Don't troll me yet, I've already ordered a complete suspension system from JRB and told Amazon that I'm returning the slap straps.

    Thanks for the welcome. Hey Peanuts, I'm actually in Tucker so you're even closer than you thought. Where are some good spots to camp around here? My girlfriend and I are going up to Vogul State park Thursday. You know of some closers parks or campgrounds?
